Far, far away from the busy cities of the Western World, on the Burma Street of 📌George Town, Penang, there is this charming Thai temple, where some of the strangest statues shine bright in the sun.
🐉Dragons and half-bird, half-human creatures are covered in tiny, colorful mirror pieces throwing sparkles on the garden alleys.
🛕 Inside the temple one of the biggest sleeping Buddhas lies on a couch as giant as him, surrounded by candles🕯️, flowers 🌸 and incense.
If you're visiting #penang soon, don't miss it. It's so pretty it should be on the top of your list.
📌 Time to visit: 0.5-1h;
📌 No entrance fee
🧧 Bonus: Fun fortune teller machine

One of my favorite places in Chiang Mai: Wat Pa Pao. Read more below. Discover my books on bodywork, Thai medicine and more: amzn.to/3xhaNey This is a little-known, non-touristic wat (temple). Admission is free. It is a Shan-style temple (one of the very few ones in the area) built in the late 1800s. One treasure possessed by the temple (though not shown in the images here) is an ancient Buddha figure in the 'Thai Ping I' style dated to 1487. The temple still functions as a community center for the local Shan community, and a newer hall on the west side offers language instruction in the Shan dialect for children, in addition to offering the Poy Sang Long ritual (literally, the 'Festival of the Crystal Sons'), a rite of passage in early Spring where boys aged seven to fourteen are inducted as novice monks for a period of three days. #thaimassageschool #thaimassagetraining #thaimedicine #chiangmai #thailand #thailandtravel #nuadthai #nuadboran #thaimassage #thaiyogamassage #authorsofinstagram #thaitemple #wat #wats #buddhisttemple #buddhism #dharma #shan #southeastasia Photo taken by me, all rights reserved.
